Keep the following points in mind:
The
remote host name
is the name of the Print Server.
The
remote printer name
is the print queue name for the Logical Printer. Logical printers also
need to be configured on the Print Server itself.
If your UNIX asks for the LPD type, be sure to identify the service type as BSD. The Print
Server’s LPD protocol meets BSD system standards.
In the sample commands shown,
printer_name
is the name of the Print Queue serviced by the
Print Server, and
Spooler_directory
is the name of the directory, which is used to spool the
print jobs.
Procedure
Action
Sample Command
Stop Print Services
/usr/lib/lpshut
Add a System Printer
/usr/lib/lpadmin -p
printer_name
-v /dev/null
Restart the Print Services
/usr/lib/lpsched
Enable printing to the new
printer device
enable
printer_name
Start accepting jobs for the
new printer device
accept
printer_name
Create a spooling directory
mkdir /usr/spool/
Spooler_directory
Make spooling daemon the
owner of this directory
chown daemon
/usr/spool/Spooler_directory
Create read/write permissions
chmod 775 /
usr/spool/Spooler_directory
Give permissions to LPD
processes.
chgrp daemon
/usr/spool/Spooler_directory
Add remote printer(s)
